12th Annual Sourland Spectacular
Saturday September 9, 2023
7:00 AM
The cycling event at the Watershed Institute (www.thewatershed.org) on September 9th will feature both staggered starts and lunches. Riders may begin when they would like between 7:00–10:00am in order to complete their route in time for lunch. Pre-event coffee and breakfast will be followed by lunches served from 11:00 until 2:00. The lunch will, of course, be capped by their famous ice cream sundaes. Riders will surely have earned it!
Ticket package includes rest stops, two meals, a gourmet ice cream sundae, Support And Gear, and swag.
The Sourland Conservancy (https://sourland.org/) hope you will join this year—cycling through the gorgeous forest and farmland of the historic Sourlands, for a challenging yet rewarding ride. Proceeds from the event will help support their tremendous forest restoration effort, now underway. Over the last three years, the Sourland Conservancy has planted over 29,000 trees and shrubs and hopes to plant 12,000 trees and shrubs this year!

Helene Cody Cranbury 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run
Saturday September 9, 2023
8:15 AM
The Helene Cody Cranbury 5K & 1 Mile Fun Run is held on a flat and fast course in the tree-lined streets and parks of Cranbury, NJ. The 5K is chip-timed and takes place on a USATF-certified course with a water station that is passed twice. It is perfect for runners and walkers of all levels, from elite runners looking to score a personal record to those who want to try a 5K for the first time. The 1 Mile Fun Run takes place in Heritage Park, making it a great race for walkers, beginner runners, and kids of all ages and their parents.
We are proud to celebrate Helene's legacy with the proceeds of the race funding the Helene Cody Scholars program, which provides leadership training, mentoring, scholarships, and project funding for high school students selected to complete a high-impact community service project in central NJ.
